Ban appeal

[ClaytonBigsby1]

Your Warcraft III username: ClaytonBigsby1
Realm/Gateway: Lordaeron US West
Why are you banned: Range ban
Why you should be unbanned: I have never used ENT servers before, I'm just trying to play with my friends but I was banned for no reason. I believe my IP is part of an area ban. I am not dodging or anything, I don't even know what that means, I just want to play dota with my friends.

ClaytonBigsby1 is a fair player and i have played with him multiple times. There must be some mistake for him to get banned. this must be a range ban. Please help him out!

Hello ClaytonBigsby1,

Looks like you were caught in a rangeban. To get this sorted out, I'd appreciate it if you would answer the questions below:

Provide a list of all your previous accounts you've used on ENT.

What games do you play on ENT?

When was the last time you played on ENT?

Please answer these questions in full. Thank you in advance.

I've never had any accounts with ENT. This is the first one I've made.
I am trying to play Warcraft 3. I was unable to play in my friend's ENT hosted game because of the range ban. His account is named Stairmaster I believe.
I have not played any games on ENT because of the range ban. I am able to connect but I am removed from the game after a few seconds because of the ban.

I'm not sure who Shadow_death is, I haven't played any games with him but I appreciate his support.

@Claytonbigsby1, i think @Unitil was meaning what are your in-game accounts on WC3 and if i'm not mistaken this is his only in-game account: 'ClaytonBigsby'

I'm not sure which WC3 account you're referring to. My friends and I tried to play WC3 but we had trouble seeing each others' games. My friend Stairmaster figured out a solution: if he hosts a game through ENT gaming, me and our other friend are able to see his game and join.

So Stairmaster started a game through ENT gaming. I had not created an account on ENT gaming at this point. After he created the game, I logged into my battle.net account through my WC3 game and tried to connect to his game. I was able to connect but in the chat for the game lobby, it said that I am banned because of a range ban.

I created this account on entgaming.net for the sole purpose of appealing the ban. I'm not 100% sure what a range ban is but I guess it's some sort of precaution where you ban groups of IP addresses because you have observed people dodging bans using IPs from that group. If there's a way you can whitelist my IP address or just my account or something, that would be wonderful. If there's anything else I need to do like post screenshots or something like that, please let me know. I just want to be able to play Warcraft 3 with my friends.

I have adjusted the range ban affecting you, you should have no further issues.

Processing.
